At LivvWell – The Wellness Hub, wellness goes far beyond physical fitness. It’s about building a community where everyone feels supported, seen and empowered to thrive. Since taking ownership in 2024, Marissa Martin has worked to make LivvWell a space where belonging and well-being are at the heart of everything it does.
“I knew of the incredible studio community long before I became the owner,” says Martin. “When the opportunity arose, I chose to buy the business not just as an investment, but as a commitment — to protect and grow a space that means so much to so many.”
That commitment shines through every class, event and conversation at the studio. LivvWell’s team creates an inclusive environment where members uplift one another and celebrate every step of their wellness journey. The studio also gives back through karma classes that raise funds and awareness for local charities, proving that fitness and community can grow stronger together.
LivvWell truly is a space built on compassion, collaboration and connection.
“We want every person to walk through our doors and feel like they belong,” says Martin. “That sense of support and togetherness is what truly makes LivvWell special.”
The AAWAs are celebrating their Sweet 16 in 2026. What advice would you give to your 16-year-old self?
I would love to tell 16-year-old Marissa, to go with your gut. If you have a great idea that you feel strongly about, don’t let other people’s fears or their own insecurities scare you away from following your own intuition. You are going to do great things and make an impact.
